I had an interest in court work and chose to qualify as a Barrister in London. When I joined this firm I became involved in litigation and other contentious work, a practice which I continue until today. George Z. GEORGIOU GEORGE Z. GEORGIOU & ASSOCIATES LLC 44 45 What made you specialize in litigation? Litigation has always been my main vocation. There is no substitute for presenting a difficult case in open court with an able opposing counsel. It is also, in my view, necessary for all lawyers (irrespective of their field) to understand the basics of litigation in order to be able to provide sound legal advice.
